It's about loving someone, sure, but it's more about people's interaction with death. The resolve of the moment, the feelings shared and the apprehensions.

The recording and mixing was done really well by Ezra Fowler. He totally understood my desire to use some Mission of Burma-esque sonic techniques, without completely destroying the song (as I probably would have done).

Great to play with a couple fun bands and meet some cool people.]]> Fri, 08 Aug 2008 23:19:11 -0700 http://virb.com/donerail/posts/text/762094 Show Recap - Kelly's 07.22.08 http://virb.com/donerail/posts/text/735431 Thanks to all who showed up last night. It was a great gig and a helluva way to get Duncan into the mix. Pretty good setlist and fantastic support from the audience. It felt really good to get back on stage (it's been a long time!) even though I was unusually nervous for this one.

  • Better Off Red
  • Some Ending
  • Iodine
  • Black Lights in the Night Sky
  • Long Division Exit

First off, Donerail will be playing a show in Portland at KELLY'S OLYMPIAN this coming Tuesday, July 22nd with our friends Hutson. Donerail will be playing first at 9pm, so don't be late. This will also mark the first gig for Donerail's new drummer Duncan!

Next, the boys will be heading down to Eugene to play McSHANE'S BAR & GRILL on Saturday, July 26th. It's going to be a full night of music, and this time, we'll be welcoming back original Donerail drummer, Dain! We'd booked this one before Duncan was added to the band, so this is a one-time only event - it's kinda like when Van Halen got back together for that one performance and no one told Dave that he wasn't back in the band...although, I'm pretty sure Dain knows better ;)

Oh yeah, Donerail has a new drummer - Duncan John. Please welcome him the next time you see the band. We wish all the best for Sean.

jP made me put this part in:
I assure you an album is forthcoming! It's in the mastering phase right now, and soon we'll have a name and some artwork for you to drool over. In the meantime, be sure to check out our myspace (www.myspace.com/donerail) and website (www.thedonerail.com) for some new songs. Don't forget about our blog (www.thedonerail.com/blog), we'll be putting up stories from the recordings and from the road soon.

Here are the details for the shows:

Jul 22
KELLY'S OLYMPIAN
426 SW Washington
Portland, OR 97204

Jul 26
McSHANE'S BAR & GRILL

We look forward to seeing you Tuesday night, July 22nd, 9pm, at Kelly's Olympian; and Saturday, July 26th, 9pm, at McShane's!!

Take care,
James
